"frontend friendly"...
use a bat file like this

--- Code: ---@echo off
copy /y "%1.ini" emulator.ini
start /w emulator.exe %1
copy /y emulator.ini "%1.ini"

--- End code ---

BadMouth:
While I'd like to see a dedicated driving cab front end, I think having it make changes to the ini file would just complicate setup for most people.
I'd rather rely on an autohotkey script or batch file that can be set up and tested separately first.

My driving cab front-end wish list:

> a gamelist that scrolls horizontally.  Bonus points if a set of pics can scroll horizontally.
> skinnable (be able to make our own instruction cards)
> video snap support
> move through list by moving steering wheel, launch game by pressing gas
> all arcade games in one list regardless of emulator (I don't care if I have to make an individual autohotkey script for each game)

The thing I can't do in Mala is the horizontally scrolling gamelist.
Just had a thought......make a vertical layout even though the monitor is horizontal.....
hmm.......

The old DK could do most of that stuff... it's old hat.  I would have to update the thing though so that it'll work on modern mame versions.
